Article Abstract
Overcoming the limitations of chemodynamic therapy (CDT), constrained by the transient nature and limited bioavailability of reactive oxygen species (ROS), this study proposes a synergistic strategy integrating CDT with immunotherapy. We engineered a multifunctional nanocarrier, HMSN-Met@HA-CuO₂, leveraging CuO to amplify intracellular ROS generation and induce cuproptosis. Concurrently, metformin (Met) releases nitric oxide (NO), which scavenges ROS to generate more stable reactive nitrogen species (RNS). These RNS elicit sustained and irreversible damage to lipids, proteins, and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), resulting in potent tumor cell cytotoxicity and activation of an antitumor immune response. This work demonstrates the potential of an autonomously driven conversion from oxygen radicals to nitrogen radicals, coupled with the enhanced combinatorial application of CDT and immunotherapy, significantly improving antitumor efficacy.

Cadmium (Cd) contamination in coastal regions poses severe environmental risks, yet bacterial defense mechanisms against Cd remain poorly understood. This study unveils distinct tolerant strategies of two highly Cd-tolerant bacteria isolated from the Yangtze River estuary: Comamonas sp. Y49 and Aeromonas sp.

Although cold atmospheric plasma is a promising therapeutic technique for tumor immunotherapy via reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS), the challenges associated with the generation and delivery of these RONS hamper clinical adoption. Herein, a dual-mode hybrid discharge plasma-activated sodium alginate hydrosols (PAH) is proposed to enhance the antitumor immune response. Gaseous highly reactive RONS are generated by dual-mode hybrid plasma produced by mixed O and NO modes, which are converted into aqueous RONS in PAH via gas-liquid reactions between plasma and hydrosols.

Allenes have gained prominence in transition metal-catalyzed C-H activation reactions due to their versatile reactivity. While C(sp)-H functionalization with allenes has been well explored, the functionalization of more challenging C(sp)-H bonds with allenes remains largely underexplored. Herein, we present a scalable Rh(III)-catalyzed strategy for the site-selective C(sp)-H dienylation of biologically relevant 8-methylquinolines employing allenyl carbinol acetates for accessing structurally diverse 1,3-dienes.

Nitric oxide (NO) is one of the crucial biological signaling molecules, yet achieving its selective and spatiotemporal detection in in-situ/invitro or biological systems at specific pH remains a significant challenge. Hence, a probe capable of directly detecting NO would be immensely valuable in understanding its reactivity and biological functions. Here, to develop a Cu(II)-based probe for selective NO detection, we synthesized a Cu(II)-complex (1) using a N3-tridentate ligand having a pendant dansyl fluorophore (L) and evaluated it's NO reactivity under varying pH conditions.

Context: This study systematically investigates the growth mechanism of nitrogen-doped graphene in a plasma environment, with a particular focus on the effects of temperature and hydrogen radicals on its structural evolution. The results reveal that, at 3000 K, the formation of nitrogen-doped graphene proceeds through three stages: carbon chain elongation, cyclization, and subsequent condensation into planar structures. During this process, nitrogen atoms are gradually incorporated into the carbon network, forming various doping configurations such as pyridinic-N, pyrrolic-N, and graphitic-N.
